Podcasts about Lingua franca

Send us a textAnthropic introduced MCP (Model Context Protocol) at the tail end of 2024, and Google launched the Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A) just this month. MCP standardizes connections between AI Agents/LLMs and external data/tools, kind of like ‘USB-C for AI'. A2A standardizes communication & collaboration between AI Agents, like a universal language / ‘Lingua Franca' for Agents. Both of these protocols are groundbreaking in their own right, and John Capobianco joins the podcast to explain why. In this episode, we start with high-level basics and end with doing an unscripted live demonstration. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the impact and applications of these two innovations.Where to Find John CapobiancoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-capobianco-644a1515/Twitter: https://x.com/John_CapobiancoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@johncapobianco2527GitHub: https://github.com/automateyournetworkShow LinksModel Context Protocol (MCP): https://modelcontextprotocol.io/Agent-to-Agent (A2A) Protocol: https://github.com/google/agent-to-agentRFC 4594 (QoS): https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4594Lang Graph: https://github.com/langchain-ai/langgraphAgent Development Kit (ADK): https://github.com/google/agent-development-kitSelector AI: https://www.selector.ai/Follow, Like, and Subscribe!Podcast: https://www.thecloudgambit.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheCloudGambitLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thecloudgambitTwitter: https://twitter.com/TheCloudGambitTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecloudgambit

Welcome, Fashion Besties! It's officially the most fabulous time of the year, and this week, we're serving you the ultimate holiday and winter trend guide for 2024.   Whether you're planning your holiday outfits, updating your winter wardrobe, or simply avoiding seasonal fashion pitfalls, this episode is your stylish survival kit.   Host Holly Katz dives into the must-haves of the season, the brands and boutiques to know, and—of course—identifies the most egregious winter fashion crimes to help you stay ahead of the curve.   Trust and believe, this episode will make you the best dressed at every event and sleigh all day, (and all winter long!) #DUH (link)   HOT TIP: Head on over to Holly's Pinterest board for this episode and see all products discussed in the flesh for your shopping pleasure.     Key Talking Points   1. Sweater Weather Must-Haves #nonnegosh Holly shares her love for cozy yet chic sweaters from brands like Toccin and Favorite Daughter, highlighting timeless pieces like cashmere pullovers and chunky knits. You can't go wrong buying one for you and one for someone else. #TRUTH   She also adores Lingua Franca's custom embroidered sweaters with phrases like “Aprés All Day.” These pieces are not just warm—they're wardrobe investments that elevate your winter style and are hot-ticket gift items for past seasons that are still going strong.      2. Boot Trends That Work for Every Occasion Winter boots are a wardrobe staple that will never die. Classic riding boots, cowboy boots (short or mid-calf styles), and heeled boots in fun colors like burgundy or navy are here to stay. Get on the boot train; it won't let you down.   Brands like Dolce Vita, Freebird, and Nordstrom's curated collections take center stage. Think you can get by without these winter essentials? Fashion. Crime. #weloveboots 3. Hot Blazers & Chic Outerwear The blazer game is strong this winter as it's been in past seasons, with leather and cropped styles leading the charge. Holly calls out Princess Polly for affordable faux leather options and highlights a chic tweed blazer from Anine Bing.   She also warns against oversized, long shapeless jackets that add unnecessary bulk—a fashion crime we can all avoid with the right alterations.   4. Holiday Party Dresses Sparkly “festive tops”? No, ma'am. Show-stopping dresses from boutiques like Reformation, Saks, and Alice & Olivia? Yes ma'am.   Off-the-shoulder A-line dresses, pleated full skirts, and leather midi dresses are some of our top picks for the festive season. Let us help you get out of your comfort zone. Pair them with statement earrings and an evening clutch for full-on glam. Worried about a shoe? You can't go wrong with a metallic. They go with everything.    5. Accessory Alert: Bags and Belts These three main bags should be in your closet...and your life: a boss tote, an everyday handbag, and a metallic or fun-colored evening clutch. #DOIT   She also insists on having at least two belts—one skinny and one wide—to instantly upgrade any outfit. Black and brown are the basics. Extra credit for white or a fun color.   6.​ Tops That Elevate Your Wardrobe Versatile, high-quality tops that can effortlessly transition from casual to dressy will never let you down. Don't compromise color or price for fit. You get what you pay for.    Everlane and Hampden Clothing are great options for stylish blouses with clean lines and unique fabrics. Start small and figure out what looks best for your body type.    Suggestions include but are not limited to: silk or silk-blend tops, billowy sleeves, and cap-sleeve blouses that layer beautifully under jackets or sweaters. It's a must for a cohesive wardrobe whether you're working from home or not.     Fashion Crimes to Avoid   • Using a cheap, distorted mirror as your “style guide.” Invest in a proper full-length mirror with adequate lighting!   • Opting for boring, too-long, oversized blazers that you think hide your figure. Get them altered to emphasize your waist.    • Settling for predictable “festive tops” and clothing that you feel you can only wear once a year at holiday parties. Opt for a fab dress and don't be afraid to be the best dressed person in the room. Also? Sequins during the day with jeans? Yes, please!     Wrap-Up   HOT TIP: Head on over to Holly's Pinterest board for this episode and see all products discussed in the flesh for your shopping pleasure.   Thank you so much for joining us in this stylish celebration of the season while addressing the pitfalls that can sneak into your winter wardrobe. (Link)   Whether it's elevating your look with luxe layers or accessorizing with intention, Holly is here to ensure you avoid fashion crimes before they happen.     Don't forget: fashion and style are your friends, not your enemies!   Happiest of holidays to you, and let us know what you want to hear. Please engage with us on socials and don't forget to DM us to get a shout-out on the next episode. Send us pics of your holiday party looks so we can tell you how gorg you are.  The Best Fashion Friend You Never Knew You Needed! We're here for ya.  Hosted by Holly Katz.

En distintas épocas de la historia han habido distintas "Linguas Francias". Primero fue el Francés y ahora es el Inglés. Saber hablar la lingua franca tiene bastantes ventajas para los que pueden hacerlo. Pero también existe una "Lingua franca espiritual" que nos trae incluso más ventajas si aprendemos a dominarla.

Larry Stone, Founder of Lingua Franca Wines, joins us today to tell us why his AVNI Chardonnay is the perfect pairing for salads, Thai, and more! Paint the Pairing: You've just returned from the farmer's market with the makings of a beautiful salad: heirloom tomatoes, cucumbers, mozzarella, olives, red onions, and more! The acidity of salad dressing can be tough to pair with, though.. what's a guy to do?? Simply open a Lingua Franca AVNI Chardonnay - a wine bright enough with incredible acidity to hang with higher acid foods! What Makes this Chardonnay Special: One of the most versatile food pairing wines in the New World! This Chardonnay is bright, moderate alcohol, & not too fruity. It's got enough acid to pair with acidic foods (like a salad with vinaigrette). You could even have it with foods with capsaicin heat, like chiles and peppers.

Revelation 17-18 New American Standard Bible 1995 The Doom of Babylon 17 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, “Come here, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, 2 with whom the kings of the earth committed acts of immorality, and those who dwell on the earth were made drunk with the wine of her immorality.” 3 And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness; and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 The woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a gold cup full of abominations and of the unclean things of her immorality, 5 and on her forehead a name was written, a mystery, “BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” 6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus. When I saw her, I wondered greatly. 7 And the angel said to me, “Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns. 8 “The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and go to destruction. And those who dwell on the earth, whose name has not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will wonder when they see the beast, that he was and is not and will come. 9 Here is the mind which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits, 10 and they are seven kings; five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while. 11 The beast which was and is not, is himself also an eighth and is one of the seven, and he goes to destruction. 12 The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour. 13 These have one purpose, and they give their power and authority to the beast. Victory for the Lamb 14 These will wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, because He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those who are with Him are the called and chosen and faithful.” 15 And he *said to me, “The waters which you saw where the harlot sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues. 16 And the ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and will burn her up with fire. 17 For God has put it in their hearts to execute His purpose by having a common purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God will be fulfilled. 18 The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth.”... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/maranatha-ministries/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/maranatha-ministries/support

After spending time tasting and being immersed in the world's best wines at the likes of Domaine de la Romanée Conti and Domaine Dujac, Thomas finds himself taking the winemaking reigns at Larry Stone and Domonique Lafon's Lingua Franca in the Willamette Valley, Oregon.

In this episode of The New Stack Makers podcast, the focus is on the challenges of handling unstructured data in today's data-rich world and the potential solutions offered by vector databases and vector searches. The use of relational databases is limited when dealing with text, images, and voice data, which makes it difficult to uncover meaningful relationships between different data points.Vector databases, which facilitate vector searches, have become increasingly popular for addressing this issue. They allow organizations to store, search, and index data that would be challenging to manage in traditional databases. Semantic search and Large Language Models have sparked interest in vector databases, providing developers with new possibilities.Beyond standard applications like information search and recommendation bots, vector searches have also proven useful in combating copyright infringement. Social media companies like Facebook have pioneered this approach by using vectors to check copyrighted media uploads.Vector databases excel at finding similarities between data objects, as they operate in vector spaces and perform approximate nearest neighbor searches, sacrificing a bit of accuracy for increased efficiency. However, developers need to understand their specific use cases and the scale of their applications to make the most of vector databases and search.Frank Liu, the director of operations at Zilliz, advised listeners to educate themselves about vector databases, vector search, and machine learning to leverage the existing ecosystem of tools effectively. One notable indexing strategy for vectors is Hierarchical Navigable Small Worlds (HNSW), a graph-based algorithm created by Yury Malkov, a distinguished software engineer at VerSE Innovation who also joined us along with Nils Reimers of Cohere.It's crucial to view vector databases and search as additional tools in the developer's toolbox rather than replacements for existing database management systems or document databases. The ultimate goal is to build applications focused on user satisfaction, not just optimizing clicks. To delve deeper into the topic and explore the gaps in current tooling,  check out the full episode.Listen on PoduramaLearn more about vector databases at thenewstack.ioVector Databases: What Devs Need to Know about How They WorkVector Primer: Understand the Lingua Franca of Generative AIHow Large Language Models Fuel the Rise of Vector Databases

While many of us think of language as something that evolved from the grunts and noises made by our prehistoric ancestors, Sanskrit, the ancient language of the Veda, has a very unique distinction; it's an ‘inspired' or cognized language, reflecting the intention of Nature through sound.Having obtained a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Sydney, majoring in Sanskrit, Thom is well placed to give us an overview of its origin and a demonstration of its beauty.He explains how its custodians have preserved its integrity over the centuries, protecting it from the inevitable change of common use.And for those of us who don't want to dive deeply into understanding it more fully, he explains why we don't need to understand Sanskrit intellectually in order to benefit from its meaning or intent.Episode Highlights:[00:45] The First Child of the Language of Nature[02:45] Rishi - One with Super Subtle Perception[04:28] Sounds Like...[06:35] Seeing the Sounds[08:38] Lingua Franca[10:29] An Absolute Language[11:32] Fluid Languages[12:32] Olde English[14:19] An Effect Without Understanding[17:00] The Means Alone Won't Get You There[18:25] A Lifetime of Learning Isn't Enough[19:28] Sama Veda - Enlivening Our Experience of the Unified Field[21:23] Puja[23:32] A Beautiful Sound On Its OwnUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

We're all familiar with the saying, don't use a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but how about using a sword to clean a finger?Vedic literature is full of delightful fables that use analogies to deliver profound life lessons. In this episode Thom gives us some background on Upanishad, Vedic fables heard ‘while sitting at the feet of a Master' before sharing a tale of a King and a swordsmith.It's a delightful reminder that our Vedic Meditation technique has a very specific and powerful purpose, and a demonstration of how to dig a little deeper than the superficial interpretation of a story.Treat this episode as a taste test of more Upanishad tales to come in future episodes.[00:45] Sitting at the Feet of a Master[02:46] Sanskrit - The First Child of the Language of Nature[04:56] Lingua Franca[07:09] Sounds Like...[09:26] Rishi - A Five-Senses Hyperactive Perceiver[10:51] When a Rishi Hears the Sound of Nature[12:47] The Stuff of Fable[14:23] The Impact of Upanishad on the West[16:35] Kenopanishad[18:36] Defense of a Kingdom[21:11] The Then-Known World[23:08] Is it Sharp?[24:52] A Demonstration of Trust[26:17] A Clean Finger[27:32] Remove the Mistake[28:42] The Pathology of Acquisition[30:17] Products of Stress Accumulation[32:52] The Removal of the Mistake[34:25] A Ridiculously Simple WayUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoles/https://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoles https://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

“Before coming on board Under the Banner of Heaven, I had very little knowledge of Mormonism, but having read the script by Academy Award-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, who is also the showrunner for the show, I resonated deeply with Jeb Pyre (played by Andrew Garfield) when it comes to his growing ambivalence and his crisis of faith.And the more he learned about the gruesome, grisly history of the founding Mormonism, and also about the case that he was investigating, the more disillusioned and disenchanted he was becoming. And that resonated with me because I was raised Catholic in the Philippines. I was born and grew up in the Philippines, which is the most predominantly Catholic country in Asia. In fact, 95% of Filipinos are Roman Catholic, but as I grew older, actually went to Catholic schools and universities from kindergarten until college, and then the more I learned about the history of the Catholic Church and the atrocities and the injustices that it has committed, especially in the name of colonialist and imperialist pursuits in the Middle ages, the more I questioned its control over me and my life.” Redefining being a multi-hyphenate for artistic control and representation, Sandoval made her television debut directing the 6th episode for the new FX limited series, Under the Banner of Heaven based on the New York Times best seller by Jon Krakauer. Isabel Sandoval is a Filipina filmmaker who made history with the World Premiere of Lingua Franca at the 2019 Venice International Film Festival's Giornate degli Autori section and was the first film directed by and starring a trans woman of color ever to screen in competition. In honor of her achievements with the film, Sandoval was nominated for the John Cassavetes Award at the 2021 Film Independent Spirit Awards. Her early film works debuted last summer on The Criterion Channel platform, displaying her growth and evolution as a creator, able to embrace new mediums.www.fxnetworks.com/shows/under-the-banner-of-heavenThe Criterion Channelwww.imdb.com/name/nm4583383/www.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.org

After a meteoric rise, China today is one of the world's most powerful nations. Just a century ago, it was a crumbling empire with literacy reserved for the elite few, as the world underwent a massive technological transformation that threatened to leave them behind. Today's guest is Prof. Jing Tsu, author of “Kingdom of Characters: The Language Revolution that Made China Modern.” She argues that China's most daunting challenge was a linguistic one: the century-long fight to make the Chinese language—with its many dialects and complex character-based script—accessible to the modern world of global trade and digital technology. We discuss the connection between language and power, challenges China faced to ensure their language remained dominant/widespread, the innovators who adapted the Chinese language to a world defined by the West and its alphabet, AND it was so important for China to preserve its ancient character set, even though it was seen as such a hindrance to their technological development.
